We dined on a Thursday night in November and had a lovely meal. The food was outstanding starting with a sumptuous wedge salad and tasty shrimp cocktail. The leg of lamb was delectable and my ribeye steak was cooked to perfection. Our server was very good, although it was a little awkward when he offered to my wife for tasting, the wine that I had ordered. I wish the table had been set with a linen tablecloth - placemats are just not congruent with the otherwise elegant atmosphere. Special kudos to Brian, the manager, who immediately engaged us when the question of gluten sensitivity arose.

Food and service were fantastic. I had the special with scallops. Every part of the dish was exquisite. We also had excellent service at Otesaga overall, but Clayton at 1909 was very congenial and professional. We appreciated the genuine care. Thank you!!!

Beautiful view from the patio table. Delightful server from South Africa.Heaters and blankets kept us cozy. Excellent wine choices with personable sommelier. East Coast Oysters were plump and tasted great. Salmon delicious. Beef Wellington special underwhelming. Nice evening.

We dined at the1909 restaurant for their Sunday Afternoon Tea. It was a wonderful experience. The selection of teas was broad, served in proper tea pots, and refilled on request. The staff was friendly and helpful with just the right balance of attention and space. The menu was delightful. We especially enjoyed the savory selections. The deviled egg dish was surprising and excellent. It may have ruined other deviled eggs for me since they won't be able to compare to these. We enjoyed the scones and the sweet dishes as well. We would come back again for sure.
